Which started me thinking about how I might be able to encourage this engagement conversation...and it led me to something simple - a hand stamp!
As I was looking on Pinterest and Amazon for some stamps I could purchase, I had a hard time finding one that fit what I wanted to accomplish. I know I can be a perfectionist about some things, but I wanted something more than just a smiley-face stamp. My searching was sporadic over a couple of days and then a had a friend who shared that she bought a hat from Zazzle, which prompted me to look into what Zazzle offered. And what it offered was the solution to my problem - the ability to custom design rubber stamps (as well as many other products)!
I started playing around with the design tools and was very quickly able to design a stamp that was a little punny, I mean funny, that I thought the students would enjoy. I was able to design a couple and added them to a store so that if anyone was in my same perfectionist position (or just likes cute stamps for students), they could enjoy them as well. |
